1 Aesculap Spine S 4 Spinal System Instrumentation Guide

2 S 4 Spinal System S 4 From initial conception, the S 4 Spinal System was developed to meet the spine surgeon s need for an extremely low profile and incredibly stable thoracolumbar spinal fixation system. By combining the exceptionally small yet stable design of the screw construct with simple instrumentation, the S 4 Spinal System emerges as a remarkably safe system for posterior column fixation. The development elements small, stable, simple, and safe define the S 4 Spinal System as the state-of-the-art pedicle fixation system of choice for surgeons requiring performance oriented top-loading pedicle screw systems! Small The S 4 Spinal System features a revolutionary pressure vessel design capable of delivering unmatched biomechanical stability while maintaining an exceptionally small implant volume. This low profile, low volume aspect of S 4 reduces the risk of facet and soft tissue impingement which ultimately leads to better mechanical stability and reduced soft tissue irritation. S 4 also features an inner set screw for locking the construct which greatly improves distraction and compression maneuvers and guarantees a low run on the rod throughout all implant components! Stable The S 4 Spinal System features a unique closure mechanism that maximizes surface contact area which effortlessly stabilizes the whole construct and ensures a high overall biomechanical strength. In addition, the interconnection strength between the bone screw and body is extremely stable due to a special shaped seat inside the body which creates the revolutionary pressure vessel that efficiently transfers force throughout the rod-screw construct. Lateral stability can also be achieved with S 4 using the various rigid and adjustable cross-connectors! 2

3 Simple S 4 s instruments were designed to meet the surgeons demand for a quicker yet simpler operational procedure. The multiaxial capability of the polyaxial screws provide 42 total range of motion, which allows for easier rod placement and reduction. The small implant volume greatly improves distraction and compression maneuvers, especially in narrow conditions, and enhances the surgeon s ability to place interbody fusion spacers when distracting off pedicle screws. By combining the S 4 Spinal System with the ProSpace interbody fusion spacers, Aesculap offers a true three-column stabilization portfolio, capable of providing the surgeon all it takes to operate in spine surgery! Safe The top-loading, inner set screw of S 4 features an exclusive undercut thread design that virtually eliminates cross threading. This unique undercut thread actually directs the forces inward to prevent splaying of the body, which ultimately results in improved force transmission and efficiency throughout the rod screw construct. S 4 s small volume and low profile design also minimizes interference with anatomical structures thereby allowing the surgeon the ability to remove less facet joint! 3

Fig. 3: Palpation for perforations in the pedicle wall Straight pedicle sounder FW146R Curved pedicle sounder FW147R If necessary, the single or dual band pedicle markers FW191R or FW192R can be used to identify proper anatomic location on intra-operative radiographic imaging. Single band pedicle marker FW191R Dual band pedicle marker FW192R 6

7 2. Tapping 2. Although the S 4 Spinal System screws are self-tapping, screw taps are available in all diameters if desired (Fig. 4). To tap attach the ratchet handle FW165R to the appropriate tap, based on the screw diameter. Fig. 4: Tapping the pedicle canal Screw tap FW194R ø 4.5mm, blue FW195R ø 5.0mm, yellow FW196R ø 6.0mm, grey FW197R ø 7.0mm, light blue FW198R ø 8.0mm, purple Ratchet handle FW165R 7

8 S 4 Spinal System 3. Screw Application 3. Once the pedicle has been prepared, select the appropriate screw length and width. Color-coded polyaxial and monoaxial screws are available in 4.5mm (blue), 5.0mm (gold), 6.0mm (grey), 7.0mm (light blue) and 8.0mm (purple) diameter and vary in length from 25 to 60mm. Screwdriver with retaining clip for polyaxial screws FW173R ø 5.0mm Monoaxial screw ø 5.0mm Polyaxial screw Screwdriver for monoaxial screws FW176R Select the appropriate screwdriver based on the screw style. For monoaxial screws, use the rounded tip monoaxial screwdriver FW165R; for polyaxial screws use the self-retaining polyaxial screwdriver FW173R. Ratchet handle FW165R Attach the ratchet handle FW165R to the appropriate screwdriver. 8

9 3.1 Monoaxial Screw Application To place a monoaxial screw, insert and fully seat the rounded tip of the monoaxial screwdriver FW176R into the slot of the monoaxial screw (Fig. 5) then thread the screw into the prepared pedicle (Fig. 6). 3.1 Repeat this process until all screws are placed. For screw body manipulation the monoaxial screwdriver FW176R can be used or alternatively the screw body manipulator FW180R (see section 5). Fig. 5: Monoaxial screwdriver assembly Fig. 6: Insertion of a monoaxial screw Screwdriver for monoaxial screws FW176R Fig. 7: Completed screw insertion 9

10 S 4 Spinal System Polyaxial Screw Application To place a polyaxial screw, first fully engage the 3.5mm hexagonal tip of the polyaxial screwdriver FW173R into the head of the screw (Fig. 8), then thread the screw into the prepared pedicle (Fig. 9). Screwdriver with retaining clip FW173R Note: If the polyaxicity of the screw remains, the screwdriver is not fully engaged. Fig. 8: Polyaxial screwdriver assembly Fig. 9: Insertion of a polayaxial screw Repeat this process until all screws are placed (Fig. 10). Fig. 10: Completed screw insertion 10

11 3.2 In case of soft tissue impingement, the Marnay lever FW154R can be used to retract-off a previousely placed pedicle screw thereby creating a free operating window. Marnay lever FW154R Use the shank tip screwdriver FW174R for the safe removal of polyaxial screws. Screwdriver with shank tip FW174R Monoaxial screws can be removed using the standard monoaxial screwdriver FW176R. Screwdriver for monoaxial screws FW176R 11

12 S 4 Spinal System 4. Screw Body Manipulation 4. All polyaxial screw heads have 42 range of motion (ROM) to facilitate rod placement (Fig. 11). 42 ROM Fig. 11: Polyaxial screw range of motion If desired, the screw body manipulator FW180R can be used to adjust the rotation of monoaxial screws as well as the alignment of the polyaxial screw bodies (Fig. 12). Screw body manipulator FW180R Fig. 12: Aligning the screw body 12

13 5. Rod Placement 5. The disposable, flexible rod trials FW185R can be used as a guide for rod bending and measuring correct rod length. Disposable rod trial FW185R Both, pre-bent and straight pre-cut rods are available. All rods may be contoured using the french rod bender FW024R. French rod bender FW024R Use the rod holding forceps FW012R to assist with rod placement or rod manipulation. Rod holding forceps FW012R 13

14 S 4 Spinal System 5. If necessary, the rod pusher FW513R can be used to push the rod into position. Rod pusher FW513R The rod persuader FW208R can be used to help seat the rod fully into the saddle of the screw in multisegmental cases. Using the rod persuader FW208R also simplifies set screw placement. Rod persuader FW208R 14

15 6. Set Screw Starting for Monoaxial and Polyaxial Screws 6. Pick up the set screw SW790T from the storage disc using the set screw starter FW177R. Set screw for mono-/polyaxial screw SW790T Set screw pick up from the storage disc Set screw starter FW177R Engaging the set screw SW790T with the set screw starter FW177R is only possible on the flat side of the set screw (Fig. 13), which has the 4mm hexagonal opening. Note: The set screw SW790T has to be fully engaged to the set screw starter FW177R (Fig. 14). Fig. 13: 4mm hexagonal opening Fig. 14: Fully engaged set screw 15

16 S 4 Spinal System 6. The outer ring of the set screw starter FW177R fits onto the flanks of the screw body to ensure the set screw SW790T trajectory is correct during initial threading (Fig. 15). Finger tighten the set screw SW790T into the screw body until it contacts the rod (Fig. 16). At this stage, compression and distraction maneuvers can still be performed. Fig. 15: Set screw insertion Fig. 16: Full engagement of the set screwdriver Repeat this process until all set screws SW790T are placed (Fig. 17). Note: The set screw starter FW177R is not designed for final tightening of the construct. It is designed to only tighten to a depth that still allows compression and distraction maneuvers to be performed. Use the set screw revision screwdriver FW193R to remove a tightened set screw SW790T. Fig. 17: Placement of the set screw using the set screw starter 16

17 7. Reduction Maneuvers 7.1 Compression Maneuvers Before final tightening of the construct, compression or distraction may be performed using the compression forceps FW184R or distraction forceps FW181R. 7.1 Distraction forceps FW181R Compression forceps FW184R or alternative FW210R If distraction or compression is desired along the rod, but not against two screws, the rod holding forceps FW012R can be placed on the rod to provide a counter-force to compress or distract against. The rod holding forceps can also be used for rotation maneuvers. Rod holding forceps FW012R 17

18 S 4 Spinal System Rotation Maneuvers The de-rotation sleeves FW183R should be used during rotation maneuvers to prevent splaying of the implant head. Place the de-rotation sleeves FW183R over the pedicle screws that contain the rod to be rotated. Connect the counter-torque L-handle FW178R to one of the de-rotation sleeves FW183R (Fig. 18) and perform the rotation maneuver. Insert the torque wrench screwdriver FW170R into the tube of the counter-torque L-handle FW178R and tighten the set screw SW790T (as described in section 8) to lock the rod from rotating. Continue locking the set screws until all are tightened. Fig. 18: Placement of the de-rotation sleeves De-rotation sleeves FW183R 18

19 8. Final Tightening 8. Final tightening of each set screw is completed using the torque limiting wrench FW170R, along with the counter-torque L-handle FW178R. Torque wrench with FW170R Note: It is important to only tighten the set screw SW790T to the specified setting of 10Nm (90 in/lbs). Over tightening will lead to damaging of the bit. Caution: Do not use the torque limiting wrench FW170R without the counter-torque L-handle FW178R. This could lead to thread jumping of the set screw within the screw body. Counter-torque L-handle FW178R 19

20 S 4 Spinal System 8. To properly tighten the set screw SW790T, use the follwing steps: Insert the torque limiting wrench FW170R through the tube of the counter-torque FW178R, so the tip is exposed Fully seat the 4mm hexagonal tip of the torque wrench into the socket of the set screw SW790T Engage the counter-torque tip FW178R with the rod. Tighten the torque wrench while applying a counter-torque with the counter-torque L-handle FW178R until the arrows on the torque wrench line up with one another Repeat this process until all sets screws SW790T are tightened (Fig. 19). Fig. 19: Placement of the counter-torque L-handle Caution: Over tightening the set screw SW790T could lead to implant failure. Damaged set screws must be replaced. Set screw revision screwdriver with 4mm hex tip FW193R Use the set screw revision screwdriver with the 4mm hex tip to FW193R to remove a previously tightened set screw SW790T. 20

21 9. Tab Removal 9. After verifying that all screws are placed and tightened, remove the tabs with the tab breaker FW179R (Fig. 20). Tab breaker FW179R Fig. 20: Tab removal Note: The rod persuader FW208R can be used to help seat the rod fully into the saddle of the screw if the screw body tabs break-off prematurely which should simplify set screw placement. Rod persuader FW208R 21

22 S 4 Spinal System 10. Cross Connector Placement 10. Although cross connector placement is optional, they may be used to create a more rigid construct. If a cross connector will be used, determine the appropriate size using the cross connector sizing template FW202R. Cross connector sizing template FW202R To place a cross connector, first verify there are no obstructions, then insert the cross connector. If the cross connector fits properly and is fully seated onto both rods, final tightening can be accomplished by applying 4Nm (36 in/lbs) of torque to the golden lokking screws using the cross connector torque wrench screwdriver FW207R and the cross connector counter-torque device FW204R (Fig. 21). Fig. 21: Applying the cross connector 22

23 10. Cross connector torque wrench screwdriver 4Nm (36 in/lbs) FW207R Counter-torque for cross connectors FW204R 23

24 S 4 Spinal System 10. If necessary, the adjustable cross connectors can be contoured using the cross connector bender FW203R. Place the cross connector face-up in the bender and apply the necessary force required to achieve the appropriate angle (Fig. 22). The maximum angle allowed by the cross connector bender FW203R is 20 (Fig. 23). Fig. 22: Placement of the cross connector in the cross connector bender FW203R Fig. 23: Cross connector bending Caution: Avoid bending the cross connector more than 20 or in multiple directions. This could lead to cross connector failure. Cross connector bender FW203R 24
